In two days the 2016 CrossFit Games Open will begin for some of you. It will be a time to show everyone all the hard work, sweat, and dedication you put in to this year’s training. For those of you not doing the Open, we will reach another testing cycle. We will test…once again, to gauge our improvement as well. To see where the year of training has taken us. I said this last year; however, I still do believe that this is the fittest Precision CrossFit has ever been. Your performances in recent competitions and steadily increasing lifting numbers tell me that you are prime for some amazing performances. The things you all can do are pretty incredible. I have worked tirelessly to develop a 52 week plan that would increase performance. I wrote and re-wrote my programs dozens of times. Researched new ideas as they have come up, and I have searched long and hard for means to preclude injuries from occurring. As a coach, all I can do now is hope I did my job and leave the rest up to you.
This may be the toughest year to date in regards to the Open. The Southern California region has gotten more stacked over the past year. Gyms want a place at the table more than anything this year, and there will be plenty of resistance towards our quest for a 5th straight regional trip. But why not us again? If you all keep your heads, rely on your training, and remember to have fun, this year is going to be a breeze. Remember, the Open does not define you. It is just a test that you chose to sign up for. Do not let it own you. Do not obsess over it. When you do each workout, be in the moment. Then when it is over, let it go. Do not take it home with you. It is just a game. Treat it that way. No workout defines the kind of person you are. I ask that this year we stick together more than ever. Remember that we compete as a collective team against all of So Cal, not against each other. No matter your performance, good or bad… cheer! Cheer for your teammates. Offer them your support. When we go to the 2016 California Regional, we will be one team. TEAM PRECISION is all of us. You all contribute to it in your individual ways, whether you sign up for the Open or not. The team that will represent TEAM PRECISION this year will be a representation of you all. Own that, and take ownership of the fact that they are there to make you proud. This year’s Open can be a very special time for Precision. Do not let it consume you. Compete for each other. Accomplish small victories and own each and every moment.
